Bottle Size: 750 mL
Region: California
Rich Red Wines
100% Cabernet Sauvignon exclusively from the Farella Vineyard in the Coombsville AVA, located in the southeastern corner of Napa Valley on soils of red, gravelly loam on a base of volcanic ash. Deep purple in the glass with soaring aromas of cassis, ripe blackberry, purple flowers, lead pencil, leather and spice: classic, complex Cabernet aromas with an unmistakable Napa footprint. The palate is full-bodied but charged with a chiseled acidity and fresh fruit flavors all of which are framed by firm, mouth-coating tannins. Restrained, elegant and transparent, this is old-school, Napa Cab, proudly showing its terroir. Only 370 cases produced.
2018 Vintage Scores:
he 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Farella Vineyard is just as impressive as it was from barrel. A wine of tremendous gravitas and power, the Farella is endowed with so much personality. The darker side of this Coombsville site emerges with real power. Inky dark fruit, licorice, menthol, sage and lavender infuse with myriad layers of complexity. This is a reference point wine for Coombsville. In a word: magnificent.
